Just out of curiosity, I downloaded a sample of the book from Barnes & Noble, Amazon and iBooks. The nook and kindle versions are still full justified, but the iBooks version is left justified and very nice.

Is this a function of the file or the app? Is there any way to change it without stripping DRM (which I don't want to do to a library book)?

Thanks
What format is it in? Overdrive supports ePub, Kindle's azw, and PDF. ADE handles ePub and PDF. If you have the PDF, then, you're kinda stuck. Many PDFs cannot "reflow" so you're stuck with what you are annoyed by.
